Vocabulary is a very important part of language science. She studies words and their meanings. It’s no secret: the richer a person’s language stock, the more beautiful and figurative his speech. You can learn most new words by reading. It often happens that a new word appears in a book or magazine; in this case, a dictionary of lexical meanings will help, it is also called an explanatory one. The most common ones are those issued by V.I. Dahl and S.I. Ozhegov. It is they who are trusted by modern science of language.
The vocabulary wealth of the Russian language
Language, including Russian, is a developing phenomenon. New cultures, inventions of science and technology appear, one civilization replaces another. Of course, all this is reflected in the language. Some words appear, some disappear. It is vocabulary that reacts vividly to these changes. All this constitutes the richness of the language. K. Paustovsky gave a very colorful explanation of the totality of words, saying that for every surrounding phenomenon or object there is a corresponding “good” word, or even more than one.
Scientists have proven that for one person to understand another, it is enough to have 4-5 thousand words in stock, but this is not enough for beautiful, figurative speech. Russian is one of the most beautiful languages, so it is simply necessary to take advantage of its richness. Moreover, knowledge of individual words with their interpretations is not enough (for this you can simply learn a dictionary of lexical meanings). It is much more important to know words that are related in meaning, their figurative meaning, to understand and use antonyms, and to use homonymous units.
Lexical meaning of the word
The word is the most important unit of any language. It is from them that combinations and subsequently sentences are made that people communicate with each other. How to distinguish one word from another? Using phonetic design. Lexical meaning will also help with this. This is what differentiates the words. They can designate, for example, objects, people or living beings ( table, teacher, wolf); natural phenomena ( wind, frost), actions ( run, watch), signs ( beautiful, pink).
Over the course of centuries, words can change their lexical meaning. Let's take for example the word garden. Until the 20th century, this word also meant a garden. In modern times, the lexical meaning has changed: garden now it is a fenced area where vegetables are grown.
There are words whose lexical meaning is a certain image that is easy to imagine and depict: wood, cabinet, flower. For others it is very abstract: love, grammar, music. The lexical meaning of the Russian language is summarized in explanatory dictionaries. There are several ways of interpretation: words with the same meaning. For example, way - road. Some dictionaries offer a detailed explanation: path- a specific place in space through which they move.
Why is it necessary to know the lexical meaning?
It is very important to know the lexical meaning - this will save you from some spelling errors. For example:
- Trying on wedding dresses is a tedious but enjoyable process.
- She was always good at reconciling enemies.
In the first example, the word “try on” is used in the meaning of “to try on”, so the root should be written e. In the second sentence we are talking about the world, so the letter is required And fundamentally.
Not only words, but also morphemes have different lexical meanings. Yes, prefix at- used when talking about the incompleteness of an action, immediate proximity, approach or accession; pre- in cases where the highest degree of something is meant ( very funny - very funny, But: move (attachment), sit down (incompleteness), seaside (close to the sea).
There are also roots that have different lexical meanings. These are like - poppy-/-mock-; -equals-/-exactly-. If the word means immersion in liquid, you should write - poppy- (dip cookies in milk), another thing is the meaning of “pass, absorb liquid”, in this case the writing is required - mock- (wet feet). Root - equals- should be written when talking about equality ( the equation); -exactly- used to mean something smooth, even ( trim bangs).
Single and polysemous words
The wealth of words in the Russian language consists of those units that have several or only one lexical meaning. These are unambiguous and ambiguous words. The first have only one interpretation: birch, scalpel, Moscow, pizza. As can be seen from the examples, the group of unambiguous words includes proper names, recently emerged or foreign words, also narrowly focused. These are all kinds of terms, names of professions, names of animals.
There are much more polysemous words in the language, that is, those that have several meanings. As a rule, interpretations revolve around a certain feature or meaning. An explanatory dictionary will tell you that a word has multiple meanings. The meanings of such lexemes are listed below the numbers. Let’s take the word “earth” as an example. It has several interpretations:
- One of the planets in the solar system.
- Land is the opposition to the concepts of “water” and “sky”.
- Soil is a fertile layer that allows you to grow all kinds of crops.
- Territory that belongs to someone.
- For some countries it is a federal unit.
Direct and figurative meaning of the word
All polysemantic words can contain a direct or figurative interpretation. If you encounter the task “Explain the lexical meaning of words,” you need to look in a dictionary. There, next to the meaning, it will be indicated whether it is direct or figurative. The first is the main one; the second was formed on the basis of the main one based on the principle of similarity.
For example, consider the word “hat”. First, its main meaning is a headdress with a small brim. Based on the similarity, a figurative interpretation was formed: the upper part of an object, expanded and flat - mushroom or nail cap.
It is figurative meanings that give speech a special imagery; on their basis, such tropes as metaphor are created (hidden comparison: sheaf of hair), metonymy (contiguity of features: silver plate) and synecdoche (a part is used instead of the whole: the peasant was actually a slave).
Sometimes there are cases when only a figurative meaning appears in a language, and to complete a task such as “Determine the lexical meaning of words”, you will need not only an explanatory, but also an etymological dictionary. For example, this happened with the adjective “red”. Its direct meaning “beautiful” was preserved only in ancient toponyms (“Red Square”) or folklore (proverbs).
Homonyms
The meanings of words can be compared or contrasted. The program for grades 5-6 studies such relationships. The lexical meaning of homonyms, synonyms and antonyms is very interesting. Let's look at all these types of words.
Homonyms are those words that are identical in pronunciation or spelling, but their meaning is completely different. Yes, words carnations(flowers) and carnations(pointed rods for fastening materials) are spelled the same and pronounced differently. Another example: braid– type of hairstyle, and braid- agricultural implement. Homonyms can also be grammatical. So, in the phrases “light the oven” and “bake pies”. Word bake is a noun in the first case and a verb in the second. The concepts of homonymy and polysemy should not be confused. The first does not imply any similarity between concepts, while the second is built on the principle of similarity of any feature.
Synonyms
Synonyms are words with identical lexical meaning. For example, the words “friend, buddy, comrade, fellow” have the meaning of a close, trusted person. However, synonyms still differ in shades of meaning. Friend, for example, denotes a particularly close person.
Synonyms also have different stylistic colors. So, shirt-guy used in colloquial speech. As a rule, synonyms are words of one part of speech, but they can be stable combinations. Knowledge of the phenomenon of synonymy helps to avoid spelling errors. So, to find out the correct spelling of the particle Not with nouns or adjectives, you must follow the algorithm: “define the lexical meaning and try to find a synonym without Not: foe - enemy".
Antonyms
Antonyms are words that are diametrically different in lexical meaning: friend - enemy; go – run; deep – shallow; up down. As we can see, the phenomenon of antonymy is characteristic of any parts of speech: nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs. The use of such words gives special expressiveness to speech, helps to convey particularly important thoughts to the listener or reader, therefore very often words with opposite meanings are found in popular sayings - proverbs. For example, “It lays down softly, but sleeps hard.” In this case, “softly and hardly” are antonyms.
As you can see, the Russian language is very diverse, so the topic of interpretation of words has been studied for several years. In addition, it is included in the main school exams, where it appears, for example, the task “Explain the lexical meaning of words” or “Choose a synonym/antonym/homonym for the word” and so on.
Types of lexical meanings of words in Russian
In this article we will look at the types of lexical meanings of words and present their most famous classification, created by V. V. Vinogradov.
What is lexical meaning?
As you know, a word has two meanings - grammatical and lexical. And if the grammatical meaning is abstract and inherent in a large number of words, then the lexical meaning is always individual.
Lexical meaning is usually called the correlation of objects or phenomena of reality with a specific sound complex of a language unit, fixed in the mind of a native speaker. That is, lexical meaning denotes the content inherent in a certain word.
Now let’s look at the basis on which types of lexical meanings of words are distinguished. And then we’ll look at one of the most popular classifications.
Types of lexical meanings
Semantic correlation of various words of the Russian language allows us to identify different types of lexemes. Today there are many systematizations of such meanings. But the most complete classification is considered to be that proposed by V.V. Vinogradov in his article entitled “Basic types of lexical meanings of words.” We will analyze this typology further.
By correlation
Based on nomination (or correlation), it is customary to distinguish two meanings of a lexeme – direct and figurative.
Direct meaning, also called main or basic, is a meaning that reflects the phenomenon of reality, the real world. For example: the word “table” means a piece of furniture; "black" is the color of coal and soot; “boil” means to bubble, seethe, evaporate from heating. Such semantics is permanent in nature and is subject only to historical changes. For example: “table” in ancient times meant “reign,” “throne,” and “capital.”
The main types of lexical meanings of a word are always divided into smaller ones, which we proved in this paragraph, talking about literal and figurative meanings.
Returning to the main topic, we can add that words in their literal meaning are less dependent than others on the context and other words. Therefore, it is believed that such meanings have the least syntagmatic coherence and the greatest paradigmatic conditionality.
Portable
Types of lexical meanings of words were identified on the basis of living Russian speech, in which language games are very often used, part of which is the use of words in figurative meanings.
Such meanings arise as a result of the transfer of the name of one object of reality to another on the basis of common features, similarity of functions, etc.
Thus, the word was able to have several meanings. For example: “table” - 1) in the meaning of “piece of equipment” – “machine table”; 2) in the meaning of “food” - “get a room with a table”; 3) in the meaning of “department in an institution” - “round table”.
The word “boil” also has a number of figurative meanings: 1) in the meaning of “manifestation to a high degree” - “work is in full swing”; 2) excessive manifestation of emotions - “seething with indignation.”
Figurative meanings are based on the rapprochement of two concepts with the help of various kinds of associations that are easily understood by native speakers. Very often, indirect meanings have great imagery: black thoughts, seething with indignation. These figurative phrases quickly become fixed in the language, and then end up in explanatory dictionaries.
Figurative meanings with pronounced imagery differ in their stability and reproducibility from metaphors invented by writers, publicists and poets, since the latter are strictly individual in nature.
However, very often figurative meanings lose their imagery for native speakers. For example, “handles of a sugar bowl”, “bend of a pipe”, “chime of a clock” are no longer perceived by us as figurative phrases. This phenomenon is called extinct imagery.
Types of lexical meanings of words by origin
Depending on the degree of semantic motivation (or origin), the following are distinguished:
- Motivated words (secondary or derivative) - are derived from word-forming affixes and meanings of the word-derived stem.
- Unmotivated words (primary or underived) - they do not depend on the meaning of the morphemes that make up the word.
For example: unmotivated words include “build”, “table”, “white”. Motivated ones include “construction”, “desktop”, “whitewash”, since these words were formed from unmotivated ones; in addition, the primary source words help to understand the meaning of the newly formed lexemes. That is, “whiten,” derived from “white,” means “to make white.”
But not everything is so simple; the motivation of some words does not always manifest itself so clearly, since the language changes, and it is not always possible to find the historical root of the word. However, if you conduct an etymological analysis, you can often find an ancient connection between seemingly completely dissimilar words and explain their meanings. For example, after etymological analysis we learn that the words “feast”, “fat”, “cloth”, “window”, “cloud” come from “drink”, “live”, “knot”, “eye”, “drag” respectively. Therefore, it is not always possible for a non-specialist to distinguish an unmotivated word from a motivated one the first time.
Types of lexical meanings of words by compatibility
Depending on the lexical compatibility of meanings, words can be divided into:
- Free - they are based on only subject-logical connections. For example: “drink” can only be combined with words that denote liquid (tea, water, lemonade, etc.), but can never be used with words like “running,” “beauty,” “night.” Thus, the combination of such words will be regulated by the subject compatibility or incompatibility of the concepts that they denote. That is, “freedom” in the combination of such words is very conditional.
- Non-free - such words are limited in their ability to be lexically combined. Their use in speech depends on both the subject-logical factor and the linguistic factor. For example: the word “downcast” can be combined with the words “eyes”, “look”, “eyes”, while these words cannot be correlated with other lexemes - they do not say “put your foot down”.
Non-free types of lexical meanings of words in Russian:
- Phraseologically related - implemented exclusively in stable (or phraseological) combinations. For example: sworn enemy - sworn friend is not used, unless this is the author's language game.
- Syntactically conditioned - implemented only in cases where a word is forced to perform a function unusual for it. For example, the words “hat”, “oak”, “log” become predicates, characterizing a person as narrow-minded, stupid, bungled, insensitive, and lacking initiative. Playing such a role, the word always acquires figurativeness and is classified as a type of figurative meaning.
Syntactically determined meanings also include those vocabulary constructions that can only be realized under certain syntactic conditions. For example: “whirlwind” acquires a figurative meaning only in the form gender. n. - “whirlwind of events.”
By function
Types of transfers of the lexical meaning of words can be distinguished depending on the nature of the functions performed:
- Nominative - the name comes from the word “nomination”, and means the naming of objects, phenomena and their qualities.
- Expressive-semantic - in such words the predominant seme becomes connotative (emotional-evaluative).
An example of a nominative word: “tall man” - this phrase informs the listener that the person being described is tall.
An example of an expressive-semantic word: in the same case as described above, the word “tall” is replaced with the word “lanky” - this is how a disapproving, negative assessment of this growth is added to information about high growth. Thus, the word "lanky" is an expressive synonym for the word "tall".
By the nature of the connection
The main types of lexical meanings of Russian words, depending on the nature of the connection in the lexical system of one meaning with another:
- Correlative meanings are words that are opposed to each other on some basis: good - bad, far - close.
- Autonomous meanings are relatively independent words denoting specific objects: chair, flower, theater.
- Deterministic meanings are words determined by the meaning of other words, since they are expressive or stylistic variants of them: the word “nag” is determined by the word “horse”, “beautiful”, “magnificent” - “good”.
conclusions
Thus, we have listed the types of lexical meanings of words. Briefly we can name the following aspects that formed the basis of the classification we presented:
- Subject-conceptual connections of words or paradigmatic relationships.
- Syntagmatic relationships or the relationship of words to each other.
- Derivational or word-formation connections of lexemes.
By studying the classification of lexical meanings, one can better understand the semantic structure of words and understand in more detail the systemic connections that have developed in the vocabulary of the modern language.
What is lexical meaning? We need to give examples!
Sasha Markhakshinov
Lexical meaning is the correlation of the sound shell of a word with the corresponding objects or phenomena of objective reality. Lexical meaning does not include the entire set of features inherent in any object, phenomenon, action, etc., but only the most significant ones that help to distinguish one object from another. Lexical meaning reveals the signs by which common properties are determined for a number of objects, actions, phenomena, and also establishes the differences that distinguish a given object, action, phenomenon. For example, the lexical meaning of the word giraffe is defined as follows: “an African artiodactyl ruminant with a very long neck and long legs,” that is, the characteristics that distinguish the giraffe from other animals are listed
Pavel Kiyamov
Evgeny Dzerzhinsky
The lexical meaning of a word is its content, i.e., the correlation between the sound complex and an object or phenomenon of reality, historically fixed in the minds of speakers. lexical meaning of a word The direct meaning is one that is directly related to an object or phenomenon, quality, action, etc. A figurative meaning is one that arises as a result of not direct correlation with the object, but through the transfer of direct meaning to another object due to various associations . Examples: nose - the organ of smell, located on the human face, the muzzle of an animal (straight); – the front part of a ship, aircraft (portable); – bird’s beak (portable); – toe (toes of shoes).

Words can have one meaning - they are called unambiguous, or they can have several meanings (two or more) - they are called polysemous.
Meanings can be direct - these are primary, original meanings, or they can be portable - these are secondary meanings that arise on the basis of transferring primary meanings to other objects, signs, actions.

The lexical and grammatical meanings of a word differ.
The lexical meaning of a word is the correlation of the word with certain phenomena of reality.
All words of a language have lexical meaning, but the meanings of independent and auxiliary parts of speech differ. Independent parts of speech name objects, actions, signs, quantities (man, run, fast, twelve), and service parts express the relationship between words in a phrase and a sentence or introduce additional semantic shades into the sentence (on, in, through, since, because , whether, -ka) .
The grammatical meaning of a word is its characteristic tics in terms of belonging to a certain part of speech, as well as the meaning of its grammatical form.
The lexical meaning of a word is contained in the base of the word, the grammatical meaning is in the affixes.
For example, the lexical meaning of the word “house” is “a residential building, as well as (collective) people living in it,” and the grammatical meaning is that it is a noun, common noun, inanimate, masculine, II declension, that it can be defined by an adjective, change according to cases and numbers, and act as a member of a sentence.

THE LEXICAL MEANING OF A WORD is its interpretation, this is what the word means.
.
.
The lexical meaning of words is explained in explanatory dictionaries. There are several ways to interpret words:
● by describing an object, feature, action, etc.;
● selection of synonyms;
● using an antonym / antonyms;
● selection of words with the same root.
Words can have one meaning - they are called SINGLE MEANING, or they can have several meanings (two or more) - they are called MULTI MEANING.
.
.
MEANINGS can be DIRECT - these are the primary, original meanings of words, or they can be PORTABLE - these are secondary meanings that arise on the basis of transferring primary meanings to other objects, signs, actions. 
FIGURE MEANINGS OF WORDS are the basis of such figurative means of language as METAPHOR, METONYMY, PERSONIFICATION, so the use of words in a figurative meaning gives speech and the language of works of art brightness, imagery, and expressiveness.
An example of interpretation of the lexical meaning of a word:
.
IN ADDITION TO LEXICAL MEANING, words of significant parts of speech have GRAMMARICAL meaning. This is the meaning of number, gender, case, person, for example:
● the ending -IT in the verb SEES expresses the grammatical meaning of the singular, 3rd person;
● the ending -A in the verb LOOKED expresses the grammatical meaning of the singular, feminine, and, together with the formative suffix -L-, also the meaning of the past tense;
● the ending -U in the noun COUNTRY expresses the grammatical meaning of the feminine gender, singular, nominative case;
● the ending -YMI in the adjective MYSTERIOUS expresses the grammatical meaning of the plural, accusative case.
Anton Ulyanchenko
The lexical meaning of a word is essentially its definition,
Grammatical is the function that this word carries in a sentence (for example, is it a subject, predicate, object)
Single meaning words are words with one meaning, polysemous words are words with many meanings. For example, cough is an unambiguous word, for example, and shoe is ambiguous (both shoes and a buffer for stopping trains)
Direct meaning - words and expressions taken literally. For example: creaking the table.
The figurative meaning of a word is what is perceived as a metaphor, not literally. For example, reluctantly.
10. Concept of vocabulary, word.
LEXICO is the vocabulary of a language.
LEXICOLOGY is a branch of linguistics that deals with the study of vocabulary.
WORD is the basic structural-semantic unit of language, which serves to name objects, phenomena, their properties and which has a set of semantic, phonetic and grammatical features. The characteristic features of a word are integrity, distinctiveness and integral reproducibility in speech.
The main ways to replenish the vocabulary of the Russian language.
The vocabulary of the Russian language is replenished in two main ways:
Words are formed on the basis of word-forming material (roots, suffixes and endings),
New words come into the Russian language from other languages due to the political, economic and cultural ties of Russian people with other peoples and countries.
11. LEXICAL MEANING OF THE WORD- the correlation of the sound design of a linguistic unit with a particular phenomenon of reality, fixed in the consciousness of the speaker.
Single and polysemous words.
Words can be unambiguous or ambiguous. Unambiguous words are words that have only one lexical meaning, regardless of the context in which they are used. There are few such words in the Russian language, these are
- scientific terms (bandage, gastritis),
- proper names (Nikolai Petrov),
- recently emerged words that are still rarely used (pizzeria, foam rubber),
- words with a narrow subject meaning (binoculars, can, backpack).
Most words in Russian are polysemantic, i.e. they can have multiple meanings. In each individual context, one meaning is actualized. A polysemantic word has a basic meaning and meanings derived from it. The main meaning is always given in the first place in the explanatory dictionary, followed by derivatives.
Many words that are now perceived as polysemantic originally had only one meaning, but since they were often used in speech, they began to have additional meanings, in addition to the main one. Many words that are unambiguous in modern Russian can become ambiguous over time.
Direct and figurative meaning of the word.
Direct meaning is the meaning of a word that directly correlates with the phenomena of objective reality. This value is stable, although it may change over time. For example, the word “table” in Ancient Rus' had the meaning of “reign, capital,” but now it has the meaning of “piece of furniture.”
A figurative meaning is a meaning of a word that arose as a result of the transfer of a name from one object of reality to another on the basis of some similarity.
For example, the word “sediment” has a direct meaning: “solid particles present in a liquid and deposited on the bottom or walls of a vessel after settling,” and a figurative meaning is “a heavy feeling remaining after something.”
12. HOMONYMS- these are words that have different meanings, but are identical in pronunciation and spelling. For example, a club is a “spherical flying smoky mass” (a club of smoke) and a club is a “cultural and educational institution” (a railway workers’ club). The use of homonyms in the text is a special stylistic device.
13. SYNONYMS- these are words close to each other in meaning. Synonyms form a synonymous series, for example, assumption - hypothesis - guess - assumption.
Synonyms may differ slightly in sign or style, sometimes both. Synonyms that completely match in meaning are called absolute synonyms. There are few of them in the language; these are either scientific terms (for example, spelling - spelling), or words formed using synonymous morphemes (for example, guard - guard).
Synonyms are used to make speech more varied and avoid repetition, as well as to give a more accurate description of what is being said.
14. ANTONYMS- these are words with opposite meanings.
Antonyms are words that have correlative meanings; You cannot put in an antonymic pair words that characterize an object or phenomenon from different sides (early - late, fall asleep - wake up, white - black.).
If the word is polysemantic, then each meaning has its own antonym (for example, for the word “old” in the phrase “old man” the antonym is the word “young”, and in the phrase “old carpet” - “new”).
Like synonyms, antonyms are used for greater expressiveness of speech.
15. Word categories by origin.
All words in Russian are divided into:
- primordially Russian, which include Indo-European words (oak, wolf, mother, son), common Slavic pe-sika (birch, cow, friend), East Slavic vocabulary (boot, dog, village), Russian vocabulary proper (mason, leaflet);
- borrowed words, which include borrowings from Slavic languages (finger, mouth - Old Slavonicisms, borscht - Ukrainian borrowing, monogram - Polish borrowing) and non-Slavic languages (Scandinavian - anchor, hook, Oleg; Turkic - hut, chest; Latin - audience, administration ; Greek - cherry, lantern, history; German - sandwich, tie; French - battalion, buffet, etc.)
16. Outdated words and neologisms.
The vocabulary of the Russian language is constantly changing: some words that were previously used very often are now almost unheard of, while others, on the contrary, are used more and more frequently. Such processes in language are associated with changes in the life of the society it serves: with the advent of a new concept, a new word appears; If society no longer refers to a certain concept, then it does not refer to the word that this concept denotes.
Words that are no longer used or are used very rarely are called obsolete (for example, child, right hand, mouth, Red Army soldier, people's commissar.
Neologisms are new words that have not yet become familiar and everyday names. The composition of neologisms is constantly changing, some of them take root in the language, some do not. For example, in the middle of the 20th century, the word “satellite” was a neologism.
From a stylistic point of view, all words of the Russian language are divided into two large groups:
- stylistically neutral or commonly used (can be used in all styles of speech without limitation);
- stylistically colored (they belong to one of the styles of speech: bookish: scientific, official business, journalistic - or colloquial; their use “out of style” violates the correctness and purity of speech; you need to be extremely careful in their use); for example, the word “interference” belongs to the colloquial style, and the word “expel” belongs to the book style.
8. In the Russian language, depending on the nature of the functioning, there are:
Common vocabulary (used without any restrictions),
- vocabulary of a limited scope of use.
17. Vocabulary of limited scope of use:
- dialectisms are words belonging to a specific dialect. Dialects are Russian folk dialects that contain a significant number of original words known only in a certain area. Dialectisms can be
- lexical (known only in the territory of distribution of this dialect): sash, tsibulya,
- morphological (characterized by a special inflection): in me,
- phonetic (characterized by a special pronunciation): [tsai] - tea, [khverma] - farm, etc.
- Professionalisms are words that are used in various fields of production, technology, etc. and which have not become generally used; terms - words that name special concepts of any sphere of production or science; professionalisms and terms are used by people of the same profession, in the same field of science (for example, abscissa (mathematics), affricates (linguistics)),
Lexical meaning of the word
Nominative (direct) meaning with l 6-v a. Lexical meaning directly related to the reflection in consciousness of objects, phenomena, relations of objective reality. Knife (name of the item), beautiful (name of the quality), read (name of the action), ten (name of the number), quickly (name of the attribute of the action). Words that have a nominative meaning form free phrases. Phraseologically related meaning of words a. Lexical meaning that exists or is acquired only as part of a phraseological unit. The adjective fraught with the meaning “capable of causing, giving rise to something” realizes this meaning in the phraseological unit fraught with consequences. In the phraseological phrase us fire and fire, both nouns acquire the meaning “trouble” Syntactically determined meaning of a word. Lexical meaning acquired by a word only in a certain syntactic function. The noun ukaz, in the function of a predicate with negation, does not acquire meaning ^cannot serve as an authority, a basis, an indication for anyone." The tyrant is still trying to prove that no one can tell him and that he will do whatever he wants (Dobrolyubov). Lexical meaning consists of a real meaning, the bearer of which is the root of the word (non-derivative stem), and a derivational meaning expressed by word-forming affixes. The meaning of “small house” in the word little house consists of the real (objective) meaning contained in the root dom-, and the derivational meaning expressed by the real reduction suffix -ik. In words with a non-derivative base, the lexical and real meanings coincide. cm. real meaning, derivational meaning.

Lexical meaning does not include the entire set of features inherent in any object, phenomenon, action, etc., but only the most significant ones that help to distinguish one object from another. Lexical meaning reveals the signs by which common properties are determined for a number of objects, actions, phenomena, and also establishes the differences that distinguish a given object, action, phenomenon. For example, the lexical meaning of the word giraffe defined as follows: “an African artiodactyl ruminant with a very long neck and long legs,” that is, it lists the characteristics that distinguish the giraffe from other animals.
Not all words in the Russian language have meaning. A word can have one lexical meaning ( unambiguous words): syntax, tangent, whatman, secret etc. Words that have two, three or more lexical meanings are called polysemantic: sleeve, warm. Polysemantic words occur among all independent parts of speech, except numerals. The specific meaning of a polysemantic word can only be determined in context: star - stars lit up in the sky; screen star; Starfish.
The lexical meaning can be explained:
- descriptively, by characterizing the distinctive features of an object, action, phenomenon;
- through a single root word;
- selection of synonyms.
The lexical meaning of the word is given in explanatory dictionaries.
The term “lexical” or, as they have recently begun to say, “the meaning of a word” cannot be considered completely definite. The lexical meaning of a word is usually understood as its objective and material content, formalized according to the laws of the grammar of a given language and being an element of the general semantic system of the dictionary of this language. The socially fixed content of a word can be homogeneous, unified, but it can also represent an internally connected system of multidirectional reflections of different “pieces of reality”, between which a semantic connection is established in the system of a given language.

figurative meaning of the word
A derivative of the basic (main) lexical meaning of a word, relating to it metonymically, metaphorically or associatively, through spatial, temporal, logical and other dependencies. The figurative meaning can become the main one and vice versa.

A derivative of the basic (main) lexical meaning of a word, relating to it metonymically, metaphorically or associatively, through spatial, temporal, logical and other dependencies. The figurative meaning can become the main one and vice versa. Such changes in the semantic structure of a word can be caused by emotional-evaluative, associative and other influencing factors.
